Bridging from 10BASE-T to 100BASE-TX Networks The Model FS108 switch can function as a two-port bridge connecting traditional 10BASE-T Ethernet networks to 100BASE-TX Fast Ethernet networks. Users requiring increased network bandwidth can be upgraded to 100 Mbps while remaining connected to the rest of the network by integrating the Model FS108 Fast Ethernet Switch with the NETGEAR Model EN108 Ethernet Hub and the NETGEAR Model FE108 Fast Ethernet Hub.

The switch provides parallel communication between each of the ports. This method of communication allows multiple conversations to occur concurrently, expands overall throughput, and allows key servers or other heavily used devices to be available to more users. The Model FS104 Fast Ethernet Switch can be integrated with a NETGEAR Model FE108 Fast Ethernet Hub and a NETGEAR Model DS108 Dual Speed Hub. A full-duplex configurable adapter card installed in the server provides up to 200 Mbps maximum data throughput.
